, f Pun felt — !3 attention bac only just
lately been palled ta.a letter, signed Con-
esslislice,whiela appeared in the News•Record
Qotober and whioh is intended as a
reply to the: one which appeared in the New
Eras relative to Mr plo le nggh's speech on
theoccasion of the anniversary servioes,
recently held in Holtnesvillo.
When first I read the effusion, I ocnolud-
+pd the# an individual who would dellbe-
tately,rrlisoonctrlle and distort the simplest
'statements, so that the writer of them
could scarcely .recognize them as his own,
wap not worthy of further notice. Jut,
after considering the platter, I came to the
conclusion that it was the result of ignor-
twee. That because I had spoken some-
what in favor of the Catholics, and claimed
, 'that, Mr MQDonagh wan not justified in
rising the language which he did, when de-
rlepnoieg them, that he considered me as
Done, and therefore in treating of the subject
MOW of nay letter, he brought to bear
upon it the intellect with which he is wont
to judge_ the Catholics, and which would
amply account for the distorted views
winch he took of things, whioh, to an un-
pejndiced person, were as plain as day.
Such ignorance and prejudice as is dia.
played by Conscience and hie oleos, in re-
gard to the Catholios and the Catholic
religion, and in regard to their fellow Pro-
testents,who are audacious enough to differ
them in their o inions, if not pardon -
le in this enlightened age, is at least
(pitiable; end, being charitably disposed, I
purpose, with your kind permission, to
instruct them somewhat in this particular
',branch of their education, in whioh they
are so deplorably ignorant. And I want it
to be distinctly understood that it is the
infant class that is up for instruction, and
that the line of -argument whioh I will fol-
low, and the mode of reasoning whioh I
will adopt, meet necessarily be adapted so
es to suit the intellects of children; adults,
of course, in years, and in stature, and in
regard to other things; perhaps, also, in
intellect, but, in regard to other things
which I have mentioned, infants still.
Conscience, having introduced himself to
me in such a manner els to show me that
his case is worse than the ordinary, and is
deserving of special consideration, I will
address myself more particularly to him,
in order that he may be the more thoro-
oughly impressed. But I do not want it
understood that I thus give him promi-
nence because of partiality, but solely for
the reason assigned. The instruction is
-intended for the whole class. Owing to
the extreme nature of the case, the lesson
will be of considerable Iengtb, and I ask
your patience and sympathy while I am
engaged ii}, the uncongenial, though ohari-
table, task.
' Thus prefaced, we will begin.
Mr Conscience, when you state that we
ire an ungrateful and a funny lot of Chris.
tiane, for complaining of being treated to
r=that whioh we were fond of, you evidently
- .took it -for granted that the expressions,
"fond of the burlesque," and "fond of hear-
ing the. Catholics denounced," were to be
o-eonsidened tin their hill literal meaning,
whereas, anyone with a mind lees obtuse
hqn erre.. could see at a glance that they
were not intended' to he so considered.
But even if they were, there is a limit to
our appetite, and if Mr McDonagh insisted
on filling ns to overflowing, in surfeiting no,
so that now the bare thought of these
things, in the MgDonagh style of rendering
them, causes an feeling of nausea in the
region of the stomach,which is not pleasant
to experience, helve we very much cause for
gratitude? ' None at all, unless it is for the
radical cure, which he effectedin ns, for
our weakness for these things. But even
in this, the medicine was so bitterly strong
—out of all proportion to the nature of the
disease, which you will please to observe,
was a mild one—that yon cannot blame us
very much, if we do not feel like expressing
our gratitude, at least while the taste re-
mained incur mouths.
Speakint for myself, I do not envy Mr
McDonagh his greatness. I have listened
to Mr McDonagh on several occasions, and
think I am within the truth, when I state
that on not one of them did he fail to treat
us to a tirade of abuse, directed against the
Roman Catholics, or Plymouth Brethren,
or some other sect or denomination, that
had the presumption to differ from him in
their opinions. It scorns to me that it does
not require a very great man to excel in
this sort of thing. That a very small man
can excel in it, in fact that the smaller he
is the greater will he excel. And if to your
mind there is anything particularly great
or meritorione about it, it is because, as the
poet has it, "Little things are great to little
men."
Ma McDonagh certainly did not tell ue
that the Pope was the chief corner stone in
the Christian religion, but he told us that
the Catholics believed that he was, whioh
is false. He did not commend to us idola-
trous practises, but he told us that the
Catholics were idolaters, which is also
false, and when you define the Catholic re-
ligion as you do, and tell us that St. Bar-
tholomew's massacre, and the cruelties of
the Spanish Inquisition were by the direct
authority or connivance of the truly Chris-
tian Catholics of that time, yon, too, either
through ignorance or malice, speak that
which is false. Not a Catholio, such as I
have mentioned, but sincerely mourned
and deplored those scenes of bloodshed and
cruelty, just as much as the truly Christian
Protestants of the same age deplored like
scenes, enacted by their fellow Protestants
against the Catholics, yea, and against
their fellow Protestants. But, even if that
you state be true, are the Catholics of to.
day to be blamed for the excesses commit-
ted by their ancestors of three hundred
years ago? Are we justified in considering
them responsible? No, I think that in all
conscience, we are not justified in consider.
ing them responsible, anymore than we are
justified in holding the Protestants of to-
day responsible for all the excesses commit-
ted by their ancestors of the same age.
And, so far from the Catholics of to°day
being taught in their infancy to hold such
things sacred, as you in your ignorance
suppose, they are taught to detest and de-
plore them. But they are taught in their
infancy, and from their infancy, to hold ae
sacred the dogmas and doctrines of their
religion, and when Mr McDonagh, on the
opcasion in question, referred to their hely
Eucharist, e s the dirty piece of dough that
the servant girl had kneaded, and over
whioh the rats had run riot, he wounded
the feelings of the Catholics who were pre-
sent, in a manner that we Protestants,
peihaps, cannot very well understand. But
then we are told that Mr McDonagh did
not attack the Catholics, that he only as-
sailed the hierarchy. This is a distinction
without a difference, truly. The religion
of the Catholic hierarchy is one and
the same as the religion of the Catholic
laity; and when you attack the one you of
necessity attack the other, and no amount
of syinpeth; and love, tendered in insulting
language, will reconoile the one to hear the
other maligned. A strange sort of love and
v ipithy this is, surely, that rill permit
.l
the individual in whioh it exists to wan
tonlrwqmaitliebiest, lead hpn t i
he: has made amble amends,, by ,offering
them this port of lova, and this sort el
sympathy, as a balm for the wounds whioh
he bag • inflicted. It would be hard indeed
to find a parallel for this kind of love, un*
lees, indeed', the love whioh a grizzly bear
exhibits, as it advances with outstretched
arms to embrace.,its prey, could be com-
pared to it,
And, right here and pow, I may as well
tell you—for in your simplicity it would
never occur to you --that I am not opposed
to Protestants, who in a seemly, and in
way that is likely to result in good, ended,
vor to prove it to their Catholio brethren,
that the protestant religion is superior to
theirs, and who would try to persuade
them to come over to tie, leaving those
things behind which were not necessary
for their salvation, and bringing with them,
and sharing with ue, something which we
Protestants seem to have lost, and of whioh
we seem to be badly in need, such as the
law regarding divorce, etc„ etc. But I
would have you bear in mind, that it is to
your manner of doing these things, and to
your ignorance of believing your Catholic
brethren idolaters, whose sole aim in life is
to grasp earthly power, that you owe this
lesson, which we are now reciting, and
whioh I hope will result in our mutual
benefit. But to resume
You quote pa'sages of Scripture in sup-
ported your views. Permit me to tell you
that if you are so dieposed, you can easily
misinterpret and misapply the Scriptures,
so that they will seem to mean and seem to
apply to that of which you are desirous.
You have simply done those things in this
particular case. No man living, much less
you, can ever make me believe, that our
Lord Jesus Christ ever, by precept or ex-
ample, sanctioned the conduct of Mr Mc-
Donagh, on the occasion in question. And,
if you are one of those who misinterpret
the Scriptures, because it suits you so to
do, I cannot refrain from telling you, thet
it were well for you if you were a good
Catholio, for Catholicism has made ample
provision for just such eases as yours.
I advised Mr McDonagh to take up the
subject of party politics, but not in the
sense that 3 ou try to make ns believe. His
forte being ridicule, I recommended this
particular subject to him, as one that would
afford ample scope for his powers, one in
which he could scarcely stray beyond the
powers of reason, however extravagant his
statements. I advise Mr McDonagh still to
take up this subject. I advise any man
who has talents to take up party politics,
and root up, or uproot, if you like, and de-
stroy this monstrosity, that has of late at-
tained such gigantic growth in our midst,
that it is warping our judgment and de-
stroying our reason. In what country
could such a state of things exist as were
unearthed during the last session of parlia-
ment; only in one whose people were blind-
ed by their partizan feelings.
In reference to your statement, that it is
owing to such protestant; as the NEw En.&
and myself, that we have a Government
such as the one that does business in To-
ronto, I plead guilty. It is the only state-
ment in which I can find a grain of truth,
and I thank you from the bottom of my
heart, for thus sparing our feelings. Yon
would have wounded them to the quick,
had you made ue responsible (and yon could
have done this, you had only to speak the
word) for the one that does business at Ot-
tawa. I would fain give you credit for
generosity, only I know that, as usual, you
took your choice, the one after your own
heart, and in your heart of hearts you are
disposed to say "poor, deluded NEw Ens,
poor. misguided 'Sound Protestant,' who
might, if you would only be guided by my
teaching, have the impure, corrupt, bood-
ling, truckling governments of Ottawa,
instead of the pure, incorrupt, entiboodling,
anti -truckling government of Tort:Ito."
But then yon - give as et reason for your
choice, -that the Ontario government is a
Catholio one, or is ruled by Catholio. This
being true, what are we to say anent your
conduct, in bringing out, some time ago,
as your oandidate, an out and out Roman
Catholic. Are we to understand that from
some source or other, you had discovered
that this Catholic 'landidate was opposed
to the Catholics ruling in Ontario, or to
the Catholics receiving equal rights with
the Protestants. Or are we to think that
yon are yourselves believers of the Jesuit
doctrine, as defined by you, that if you
only believed that your candidate was op-
posed to Catholics, and sincere in that be-
lief, that he was opposed to Catholics. Or
are we to think that you did not care a
straw whether he was opposed to Rome or
not, so long as he was of your stripe in
politics, and in parliament voted for your
party. This last reason causes the least
strain upon our credence, and we conse-
quently adopt it, and we are going to pun-
ish you for trying to shirk your share in
this sort of thing, that you would have us
believe you deplore so greatly. The truth
of the whole matter is that you are a selfish
class. Not satisfied with obtaining a mo-
nopoly on all the loyalty, and all the old
flag, you sneak off with all the purity,
but I have caught you right here in the act,
and now I am going to make you disgorge
the whole plunder. By what act of parlia-
ment, I say, did you obtain possession of
those things? You seem to claim them
with as much assurance, and as much
cheek, as if they were yours by law. If
you have not come into possession of them
by act of parliament, you have very little
else claim upon them, I can tell you that,
and the truth of the matter is, you stole
them. Down with your hands into your
pockets, -and deliver up that which does not
rightfully belong to you, or I shall mete
out to yon the punishment which thieves
and robbers deserve. Disgorge, I say.
There, that is quite right and proper.
Here, keep this as your share. You com-
plain that it is small; well, so it is, but you
will bear in mind that this has to go a long
way round, and that you were too busily
engaged in crying loyalty, to practise it
much. You must grin and bear it, my
boys. The idea of it being much of a,bur-
den to bear, makes you grin, eh? Well, I
would much rather see that kind of a grin
on your face, than the one which yon had
when you were loaded with what you could
not very well carry.

We've heard, of Bayfteld's balmy breeze,
Its lovely bile and dales,.
Its crystal waters bearing up..
Large ships with many sails.
Three weeks ago, we were to hear
Of Seaforth's enterprise,
And may the smoke from its great stacks,
Bedeck the sunny skies.
But, come with us to"tingham now,
Apd hear what people say,
We're sure to have a city here—
And in no distant day.
Come see the hall that we have built;
And Hamilton's lofty bank;
The business of our town is run
Without a growling crank.
By rail we travel, north and south,
As well as east and west,
With railway good facilities,
Our town is truely blest.
We buy and ship the farmer's grain.
And pay for it what's right;
When daylight fades, and evening
We have electric light.
We pack and ship both eggs and meat,
For all there is a dhance;
Those far and near, do business here,
You'll see by the. Advance.
And here just let me warn you now,
And not be so amazed,
To see the loads of furniture
We draw upon our drays.
For we make it here by car lots,
For merchants east and west;
The reason they do business here,
They say they do the best.

As well as window blinds;
Flour and meal we also roll,

And handsome houses we do build,
Of Wingham solid brink.
We mould oui iron in mann shapes,
To fit all kind of humps,
And dress it up in proper style,
To suit the Wingham pumps.
We weave and dress fine woolen goods,
For Tories and for Grits;
And leather tan to snit each man,
And furs for robes and mite.
We manufacture best of salt,
For dairy use and meats,
And make both good and handsome rigs,
With fold and jump up seats.
We manufacture many things,
As well as good corn brooms;
The reason, that things pay us here,
We keep no lazy coons.

" About two years ago, after suffering
for nearly two years from rheumatic
gout, being able to walk only with great
discomfort, and having, tried various
remedies, including mineral waters,
without relief, I saw by an advertise-
ment in a Chicago paper that a man had
been relieved of this distressing com-
plaint, after long suffering, by taking
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I then decided to
make a trial of this medicine, and took
it regularly for eight months. I am
pleased to say that it effected a com-
plete cure, and that I have since had no
return of the disease."
Mrs. L. A. Stark, Nashua, N. H.,
writes: "One year ago I was taken ill
with rheumatism, being confined to my
house six months. I came out of the
sickness very much debilitated, tth no
appetite, and my system disordered in
every way. I commenced to use Ayer's
Sarsaparilla and began to improve at
once, gaining in strength and soon re-
covering my usual health. I cannot say
too much in 'raise of this well-known
medicine."
"I have taken a great deal of medi-
